Alejandro Aranda - Runner-up American Idol 2019 Season 17
American Idol announced in June 2018 that 20 cities would be visited by the Idol bus, beginning with Orlando, Florida and San Diego, California on August 25. Auditions may also be submitted on the official website, or on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTok. During the 2018 CMA Awards, three contestants who didn't enter the competition and didn't audition initially, were given a chance to enter the competition. The contestants were Cameron Lenz, Natalee Spiroff, and Megan Woods. The winner of that vote was revealed to be Megan Woods on Good Morning America on November 16, 2018. However, Megan Woods wasn't shown in any episode.
